Liverpool's Raheem Sterling shares photos of Jamaica holiday

Liverpool star Raheem Sterling has spent some time relaxing in Jamaica this week after he was given a rest by manager Brendan Rodgers.

The Daily Mail reports that the 20-year-old jetted out to his country of birth following the Reds' 2-2 draw with Leicester City on New Year's Day.

The England international was not included in the squad that secured a 2-1 triumph over AFC Wimbledon in the third round of the FA Cup on Monday.

Instead, Sterling, who is expected to play in Saturday's match against Sunderland, has been enjoying a trip to Jamaica and decided to post photos from his holiday on his official Instagram page.
